The Spring 2011 issue of Quilting & Embroidery is on newsstands now. It’s packed with fun projects for anyone who enjoys machine embroidery. Here’s a partial peek into what this issue holds.
Lady Bug, 16" x 22"
The first thing you’ll notice on the cover is the adorable Lady Bug. Straight from Angie Steveson at Lunchbox Quilts, she’ll stitch up quickly as a hug for someone special.
Flower Girls, 63" x 71"
If you’re looking for whimsy, check out Flower Girls, where a bouquet of blossoms strut their stuff.
Fun QM trivia: this is a revised version of a pattern that appeared in Quiltmaker Jan/Feb ’04 (No. 95) under the name Wedding Medallion.
You can find the Flower Girls embroidery here.
Digitized, embroidered and made by Bonnie Colonna.

Michele Mishler is back with On the Farm, a soothing country quilt embroidered row by row. Doesn’t the pieced green checkerboard look like farm fields?
For a small scrappy project, how about Treasures from the Sea? Designed and embroidered by QM editor-in-chief June Dudley, it’s beautiful and oh-so-simple to make.
There’s all this and much more inside the Spring ’11 Quilting & Embroidery. Grab it now while it’s on local newsstands, or purchase it here. We think you’ll love it.
I love the ladybug! And I love red too.
I love the ladybug! And I love red too. And the blue seashore is soothing.
I like scrappy quilting and the Treasures from the Sea looks like a neat scrappy project! I’m excited about the Blook 100 Vol.3 and can hardly wait until May.
I love the ladybug wall hanging and I know just the person I am going to make it for. This magazine is great for those of us that do machine embroidery and want to incorporate it with our quilting. Thanks so much for the great ideas.
